Melt and Pour Soap Base Clear
|
Description:
Our Melt & Pour Clear Soap Base sets a new standard for "standard" glycerin soap base. It is crystal clear with no odor and is made from ALL VEGETABLE OIL. Glycerin, a natural emollient, draws moisture out of the air to benefit skin health. It cleanses without stripping or upsetting the delicate natural pH balance necessary for soft, healthy skin. And, since we use no heavy animal oils, our soap rinses clean and leaves no soapy film behind. All our soap bases are produced from the highest quality double distilled and deodorized clear coconut oil, forming luxurious lather and sparkling clarity.

Caution: When making soaps it is good to remember that the Melt & Pour Bases contain water as part of the formula. So if they are left exposed to the atmosphere, the water will evaporate and the bar of soap will shrink. We would recommend fully wrapping the ENTIRE soap bar as soon as it is poured and cooled--this should minimize/eliminate any shrinkage.

My soap turned out great! I used some Australian red reef clay to give some color- you don't need much. The soap molds I purchased turned out very professional looking and everything went smoothly as I followed the directions. Don't forget to pour over a washcloth or something disposable as soap tends to stick to wood and countertop . I had fun using the product and hope to do so again-

Howdy!
Everyone says the base is great and all... and that's because it is "great."
I don't use too much of my product (I sell instead). According to my customers, the soap is brilliant for those who suffer from skin conditions. I s'pose it's 'cause it's a natural base. The base is clear too, if you don't use too much FO.
I'm not a huge fan of the smell of the soap when you're working with it - then again I've always been sensitive to strong smells. The smell isn't nearly as strong when the soap solidifies.
The lather isn't as other soaps (like soap from the Bodyshop, for example), but it quickly washes off, which I really like.
I don't like how long it lasts. A bar lasts (in our house) for perhaps 5 days whereas an equal weight bodyshop bar lasts ~14 days
Pros:
- Great for those who have sensitive skin
- The lather rinses off real quick and clean
- Clear
- CHEAP (well, at NDA it is)
- Melts Quick
- Takes most FO's easily
Cons:
- Bad work smell
- Not a thick lather (well, i like thick lather - if you don't, consider it a pro)
- Some FO's don't blend
- Does not last long at all.
Overall, the customers and family are happy with the product. Go buy it.

This company will continue to be my supplier by choice because I have been most pleased with timely customer service & the consistent quality of the products. I have tried both the clear & white base glycerin melt & pour soaps. My customers are extremely pleased with the finished product. Keep up the great work!

I just am very impressed with the Stephenson's superb quality and unbeatable price. By way of a quick comparison: Life of the Party makes a pretty good clear soap but the price is four times as much at Michaels for the exact same quantity and I will also say the same superb quality too.

The clear gycerin soap base is the best! I have tried a couple other brands but am sold on this one. I have extremely dry skin but after using this soap I never feel dried out. Not only are they a terrific product - the prices are the best I have come across - and I have searched many suppliers. I am so glad I found New Directions. Now I am eager to try all the soap bases.

This is a lovely M&P base!!! Melts nicely, even faster than other bases I have tried. No nasty odors, and takes scents very well. Colours nicely, too. And, something I REALLY love is that this base has the most natural ingredients of any clear M&P base I have come across thus far. This will be my one and only clear M&P base from now on!! .... I do, however, recommend buying the smaller blocks instead of the bulk bag. Although the soap was easy to cut, I would personally pay the extra few dollars for the smaller blocks, and avoid the time-consumption that comes with cutting it myself, because it took a really long time!!
